UMBRA by Viviane Sassen

This second edition comes in a revised size with a slipcase rather than portfolio case.

UMBRA delves into the world of shadows – a darkness that is seductive and deceptive; a darkness that lies in every human soul, as a still black lake with a surface flat as a mirror that can not be but shattered. UMBRA is, naturally, also the story of light – from its blinding qualities to its brittle brightness. The ever conflicting pull of light and darkness kicked off the quest for imagery of what can not be contained: a world continuously in motion, the mind unable to decide which direction to take.
